Celebrating National High Five Day, Playworks gathered high fives from across the country in the quest for the best high five of 2015.

A high five has the power to bring a smile to your face. In our work on playgrounds across the country, Playworks staff and supporters give thousands of high fives each and every day. And for National High Five Day, we gathered the top high five videos on Instagram and Twitter and asked you to vote for the very best. By your votes, the video from Lincoln Elementary School's Coach Ashley and her Junior Coaches has been declared best high five of 2015. Watch and share here.
